Jump to ULR bar

When I open a new tab in IE 8 and start typing in the google search bar,
while typing it will jump to the top where you enter the URL add, and I will
have to select again to type in the google searh box. Anybody knows how to
fix this? It only happens once, whenever opening a new tab, but it makes me
frustrated whenever I see after typing, that part of my tping has gone up in
the url bar?

Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No
Add-ons) to start IE8 without any add-ons. Try using the browser and see if
the same problem arises.

If the problem does not occur again, start IE8 normally, go to Tools (if the
menu bar does not appear, hit the Alt key on the keyboard) > Manage Add-ons.
Disable all the add-ons under 'Toolbars and Extensions'. Enable each add-on
one at each time and see if the problem occurs again. Once it occurs again
after enabling an add-on, you have nailed the culprit.

Same thing happens to me x2: Vista PC with IE7 (work) and XPpro 64bit with
IE8 (home). When I start typing in the default IE search area (not even the
google toolbar) the typing will "jump" midstream. Arghhhh, freakin' annoying.
